Pop Song 196 'I'm shipping up to Boston' Dropkick Murphys 2005
"I'm Shipping Up to Boston" is a song by the Celtic punk band Dropkick Murphys, with lyrics written by the folk singer Woody Guthrie.
The song's lyrics describe a sailor who lost a prosthetic leg climbing the topsail, and is shipping up to Boston to "find my wooden leg." These were taken from a fragment of paper that Ken Casey found while looking through Woody Guthrie's archives. The Dropkick Murphys put music to the lyrics
The song gained worldwide attention for its use in The Departed, which boosted the band's popularity. Good movie
